This is one of the first books I bought when I started learning Japanese.
Believe it or not, despite the cover and title it is actually a science fiction action thriller about a hacker trying to take down a human trafficking organization.
It's quite good and I'm happy to have read it when I was starting out because it's a real page turner. The night I finally finished it I stayed up until about 2 AM because I just couldn't put it down.

No, that's really what it's about.
The protagonist is a hacker with a supercomputer he got from his grandfather and he runs a secret vigilante organization out of a cafe.
He runs into three cute girl love interests on the same day who all fall in love with him (thus the cover/title) but he doesn't know if they're actually in love with him or if they've been sent to spy on him. That dynamic adds a lot of depth to the romantic scenes.
It's hardly high literature but it's really fun. I read it back when my Japanese reading speed was something dreadful like one page every ten minutes and I still enjoyed reading it. There aren't many books I'd enjoy reading at that slow a pace.
I've read a bunch of light novels sense then and it's still up there for me as one of my absolute favorites.
